Petrol stations shouldn't be too hard to find surely?

come to The Guild, University of Birmingham, downstairs in the Underground (ask at reception for details) on a MONDAY evening from 5-7pm.........
Possibility of fire-play other times too.
I shall kee you posted.
As far as paraffin goes - any petrol station will sort you out or a local hardware store (to get all American......lol). You must have had really bad luck. I get mine from a Supermarket's petrol station.
Hopefully see you on Monday?

People suggested petrol stations to me but for some reason I have never actually seen a petrol station selling paraffin, which means i fork out loads for a can from DIY stores and garden centre-y places

Bleh, that WOULD help if i actually asked 
Maybe they could actually answer instead of most DIY stores:
me: sorry to bother you, but have you got any paraffin or kerosene?
assistant: well, this is the only stuff we stock. it's called Parasene.
me: ...
I think i will be turning up tomorrow. I'm an aston student as well, but our juggling society is...well...non-existant
See ya later and hope I can find my way there

Try and find a camping store, they usually do big five litre drums of the stuff for about £6, I've used their stuff for  Fire Breathing and experienced no major trouble.
